Based on their technical training for thoracic surgery,postgraduates were demanded to follow up and instruct their patients on postoperative recovery from surgery. In this way,these postgraduates were trained not only in clinical practice but also in other aspects,such as communication techniques,how to take care of patients,professional moral education. Instruction to outpatients is helpful to cultivate post-graduates and promote their abilities in self-thinking,self-acknowledging,initiative,creation,and so on.
